This Nearly Was Mine

<br>One dream in my heart, one love to be living for,<br><br>One love to be living for, this nearly was mine.<br><br>One girl for my dream, one partner in paradise,<br><br>This promise of paradise, this nearly was mine.<br><br>Close to my heart she came, only to fly away,<br><br>Only to fly as day flies from moonlight.<br><br>Now, now Im alone, still dreaming of paradise,<br><br>Still saying that paradise once nearly was mine.
